check this dread, I went to the Consulate in miami to get my german schengen visa and the requirements to get the visa is a little bit of a hassle. Besides having a ticket and all my passport info they want to know who i am staying with. Since I my cousin knew someone in germany, I got an address and phone# and everything, but these damn people want a letter of invitation stating you allowing whom so ever to stay in your house for how ever long, and with that letter you have to send a copy of your german passport or something w/ the german address on it.
Well we ah get the visa...so I have to book a hotel and drive another 3 hours back to Miami to get that shit turned in...
What a day!!!
